Hello, I currently am running stock lollipop 5.02 (D80030f) on my unlocked D800, T-Mobile network. I was able to download a dlpkgfile for the D80030g update, but since I'm not rooted I don't know of a way to install this, and I've read if I was rooted it wouldn't install anyway. Is there any way to make this happen?

I would like to update to the latest firmware. I have not updated since I rooted a while back. I am still on firmware 8.6.5.6 and would like to update to the latest.
What is the best way to proceed?
Obviously, I don't want to break anything in the process of updating. I would like to keep my root or reroot at the very least. Although the only real reason I rooted in the first place was to boost my clock speeds. So I am even willing to unroot if that's the best/easiest way.
Thanks!
Hey all!
I've got an Nexus S 4G running Gingerbread on Sprint network. I rooted it using oneclick root and free myself from a whole lot of bloatware.
Now, Sprint is trying to push ICS update to my phone. Can I update manually with my already rooted phone, or will I have to unroot, update, and reroot the new version?
I think this thread addresses the same (or at least similar) thing, hope it helps:

I had to flash a stock Gingerbread ROM, which unrooted my phone, and then I was able to get the OTA ICS update. I'm on AT&T though, not sure about Sprint.
So i just picked up a GNP 12.2 from verizon and decided to root the device so i could change the DPI settings. Now when i go to run the update from kitkat to lollipop, it download perfectly, reboots starts installation and then i get the dead android avatar and it says "failed"...
Are you not able to OTA update rooted devices?

No. Also, there's currently no Root Method for the Verizon 905V running 5.1.1. You have to revert your device back to stock if you want 5.1.1.
I know 100% for fact that the phone is Spark enabled. I did a stock update to Lollipop once and had great Spark signal on my device. I hate Lollipop and my apps that require root access do not function on Lollipop.
I am wondering what I need to do in order to access Spark LTE again. I am using a 4.4.4 stock rom that is rooted via TWRP and Super SU. I don't recall exact versions and such as I have been using the same stock rom for a year now.
I recently retried 5.0/5.1 and my rooted apps still have issues, so I do not want to use Lollipop.
Is there a modem file I need to change to be able to get Sprint Spark? I had it before also on 4.4 when the phone was 100% stock and I did the official update to 4.4 from 4.2 or 4.3(been a year).
The phone was bought out, no longer under warranty as of November, and Knox already tripped so I don't care about any of that. The phone was manufactured Sept/Oct 2014 if that helps.
Any suggestions?

i dont know specifically how to fix your issue, but im betting if you look in your devices general forum, you will find a thread with all the available modems. you may have to try a couple until you figure out which one is correct for your version, if its not noted.
Hi Guys,
i have some questions concerning rooting. I have a stock Galaxy S7 (SM-G930F) with T-Mobile branding. I would like to install a Custom ROM because my battery life is so bad but i love this phone (for example because of its water resistance and the fact that my hobby is diving ).
So my plan is:
1. root my device and install a custom Nougat ROM (to change the screen resolution)
2. when the official update is out i want to go back to stock Firmware
3. now my question: Is it possible to receive OTA Updates after getting back to stock firmware?
I know know is set to 0x1 after a root and im going to lose my varranty but thats no problem, i would only like to receive OTA Updates after going back to stock firmware.
Thank you for your help!
Greetings from Munich and have a great new Year 2017
Hi!
As long as your device is stock, recovery included, you should receive the ota no problem. So flashing stock firmware and recovery should do the trick. :good:
Don't accept an ota if you do happen to get an update notification, if you are not completely stock. It will fail.
Last resort too, is flashing an updated version manually. If that's possible for your device.
Good luck!
I posted i thought but don't see it i rooted an LG ls675 with king root removed a couple preinstalled apps sprint zone and 2 amazon apps I mistakenly tried ota failed found out this unrooted my phone and tried another ota that failed also running stock installed a root browser titanium bu busy box ect do i need to remove these apps or will i have to do factory reset to get this update running 5.1.1
